?Chapter 582: Chapter 583: Heart-to-Heart (12)_1 Chapter 582: Chapter 583: Heart-to-Heart (12)_1 Liang Chen lifted his head, glanced at Mr. Suzuki with a trace of lonely disdain filtering through his eyes, his voice indifferent: “No, Mr. Suzuki, you’re mistaken, I’m threatening you.”
The complexion of Mr. Suzuki instantly darkened.
Jing Haohao instinctively raised her head, glancing at the man standing beside her.
The people crowding around them all had a murderous glint in their eyes, seething with anger, as though they couldn’t wait to tear Liang Chen apart.
Liang Chen seemed oblivious, still standing leisurely, facing Mr. Suzuki, he continued: “I am Chinese. On Mr. Suzuki’s territory, I naturally can’t compete with you. However, Mr. Suzuki, believe me, I can easily put the Suzuki Family’s business in China out of business!”
Among the crowd, some people had already started cursing in Japanese, reaching into their waistbands for guns.
The diva on stage, well-coordinated from training, was not frightened by the potential bloodshed in the room, her voice softly carrying on in song.
The atmosphere in the room seemed to be on the brink of explosion at any moment.
Jing Haohao, upon seeing the dark barrels of the guns around her and hearing the erratic sounds of the loading guns, instantly felt sweaty palms, her hand soaked by holding onto Liang Chen’s. She couldn’t help but tighten her grip.
She only wanted to come to Japan to renegotiate a contract. She had never imagined encountering such an infamous scene.
If those people fired, she and Liang Chen could be riddled with bullets in an instant, killed on the spot.
Jing Haohao clearly heard her own accelerated breathing and felt her heart pounding.
However, in Liang Chen’s beautiful, deep-set eyes, a trace of arrogance appeared. Back straight, he met the barrels of the guns that could end his life at any moment with dignity.
He noticed Jing Haohao’s unusual behaviour beside him. He slowly turned his head, looking at her eyes. His eyes were calm and reassuring. He then leaned in to whisper in her ear, “Don’t worry. I will get you back to Jiangshan City safely. No matter what happens, you will be fine.”
His voice was very low, as though whispering in her ear.
Only the two of them could hear it.
He spoke quickly, like comforting her on the eve of a great danger.
Once he finished, he looked into her eyes.
Maybe his words had an effect. Jing Haohao’s anxiety slowly diminished.
Once Jing Haohao had calmed down, Liang Chen slowly turned his head and met Mr. Suzuki’s gaze, “Turns out, I’ve overestimated you, Mr. Suzuki. Your so-called ability is nothing but bullying with numbers and guns. I heard you were outstanding in Japan. Turns out, it’s just a rumor.”
The expression in Mr. Suzuki’s eyes darkened even more. He undeniably discerned the sarcasm and provocation in Liang Chen’s words. But as a ruler at the top, he disdains to win with such tactics, so he lifted his hand and gestured slightly.
The people immediately holstered their guns.
Mr. Suzuki turned to Liang Chen and said, “From your words, Mr. Liang, it seems that you wish to confront me single-handedly. In that case, let’s simplify things. Over there is a gambling table. One round to decide the outcome. The stakes are the gentleman’s agreement.”
